harlow mummies, talk about colic, do u all think its caused by the bottle teats? anyone using avent? for me, i started my bb boy with avent teat no.1 But the hole is so small and he had a hard time sucking and the way he suck makes me think he suck in a lot of air. So i cut up the hole bigger so he need not suck so hard... so i dun know if this helps cos till now, he is not colicky. He is now week 7 and using teat no.3 already...cos teat no.2 still too small.. I dunno if i am doing the right thing.. kekeke

Gillian was on medication for 4 days liao, but i see no improvement. My friend tells me to latch on gillian all the times, but the last time i latch her on for the whole day, my nipple bleeds!! Ouch!! One side only lah. Today, i try again. From morning 9am till 4pm. I think Gillian had emptied both my breast, cos she gets very upset after sucking for a while. No choice but to give her FM again, in less than 30mins, she gets colicky again. Argh.... Will get the FM naughty is using.

Hi Ladies!!
I'm BACK!! Was discharged yesterday...
Here's my birth story, the whole labour was about 5hrs.
2nd December 2005
9am:
Saw the doctor, he said to admit and induce birth. Although girl's doing well inside, she's already 8 days past EDD and no one knows how long induction with tablet will take. Some take 2-3 days.
1230pm:
Inserted prostaglandin tablet to open up my (very stubborn) cervix
1pm:
Irregular contractions started coming, ranging from 15-30mins apart. This lasted till 5pm until it got more regular 15mins apart.
630pm-730pm:
Strapped on CTG again... SUDDENLY contractions came at 2-3 mins apart!!! Together with a strong urge to poo, the nurses panicked and wheeled me down to the labour suite.
730pm:
Pain Pain Pain... pethidine injection given and started on the gas.
8pm:
Only <2cm dilated! Very disappointed!
9pm:
About 3cm dilated... still on the gas. Strong urge to poo... kept asking for the bedpan! No poo lah, it's apparently baby pressing on the rectum!
930pm:
Had a show... waterbag still intact. Still asking for bedpan! Pain getting worse, offered epidural and I said ok.
1030pm:
Anaesthetist LATE! urgent cases in the ICU. By the time she came... I had dilated so quickly to 9cm! We all said thanks, but no need liao!
Waterbag burst by itself. Called gynae urgently as I was progressing much faster than expected.
11pm+
Gynae came and within 3 mins... Alyssa was out! She weighed 3.49kg. After all the stitching, donating cord blood, document processing etc... I was back in the ward at 1am.
My contractions were so intense... Luckily hubby was good at telling me when to breathe in the gas.

Thanks ladies!
Congrats Furry, Sexxy, bluelips, Yvonne, Meixue!
Furry, glad that you're much better now!
Sexxy,
My supply's kicking in, but she sleeps ALOT and dozes off after latching on for 5mins! So I'm expressing for her... managed 60ml just now. But she seems insatiable.
Got a problem...
My CL... she's very good at cooking, suits my taste, and she's pro BF-ing... BUT... she keeps holding, cuddling and patting baby to sleep... despite both of us telling her not to. We're trying to train her to sleep in the night... or at least to go to sleep on her own in the cot.
Just now, she was wiping her stool... and it was obviously not clean... she wanted to put on nappy liao!
Anyone terminated CL before? Should I terminate her?

Hey, Cel..same same...just finished expressing..also came in to take a look!
Dili_mummy..I terminated my confinement lady halfway..wanted to do it within a week..but had to "tahan" until the maid comes. For me, the most problematic thing was that she was really lazy...over and over again. Did not wake up to feed baby (I ended up waking up when baby cried at night..she was snoring)..she would rather read papers / watch TV than change my baby's soiled diapers. And all these happened over & over again, on top of many other things...so I guess u have to see if this is a one-off incident (of not cleaning your baby properly), and whether she would change after u told her off..of cos, the problem is ..u will keep wondering what she is doing when u are not looking!

BFing mum wont get their period so fast due to hormones changes. but tt dun mean u wont get pregnant. so if u dun wan another little one to join the family so soon... do ur part yaz

hi girls,
thanks for the words of advice and the warm welcome. So many things to learn from you all. Yes usually he suckles for about 20 to 45 min. It is only recently that he began suckling less, probably because i have started supplementing with NAN, he was slightly jaundiced and PD advised me to give him some FM.
I only pump about 20 to 30 ml each time, i am so worried that milk supply is not enough, how much do you all pump usually? and also, how often? My boy is 2.5 weeks old, is this a good time to start pumping or should i wait a bit longer?
thank goodness, yesterday we went to see the PD and he says baby has put on weight, 0.5 kg, and jaundice has reduced..
the only thing worrying me now is milk supply.. i think he might still be hungry sometimes, because after eating he still cries and also he drains the EBM very quickly..

(got this off another forum)
TABOO FOODS DURING CONFINEMENT
Cold Food
Fruits like banana, grapefruit, watermelon
Vegetables like lettuce, bittergourd, cucumber, bean sprout
Gassy drinks; coconut, sugarcane, tofu
Why?
May result in poor blood circulation and oedema in mummy and stomachache in nursing baby
Sharp Food
Pineapple, orange, lime, lemon
Why?
May result in excessive vaginal discharge which may clog mummy's urinal system and cause diarrhoea in nursing baby
Windy Food
Onions, cooked vegetables which has been left standing for a while
Why?
May cause bloated stomach and excessive passing of gas in mummy and colic in nursing baby
Poisonous Food

Pig Kidney - backache is a common complaint in pregnancy and after delivery. The Chinese believe that this is caused by the kidneys, since the lower back is where the kidneys are located. Eating pig kidney is supposed to help replenish the kidneys, especially for mothers who suffer from pain in the lumbar region.
Pig Or Chicken Liver - liver is reputed to possess yang essence and has high iron content. It helps to replenish blood, especially if mum is anaemic or feels weak after childbirth.
Pig Trotters trotters are supposed to provide collagen, especially good for strengthening limbs, joints and ligaments which have loosen during pregnancy.
Vegetables And Fruits
(Note: All vegetables should be cooked with sesame oil and ginger to ward off the cooling properties; most fruits are forbidden during confinement as they tend to be cooling.)
Kailan this is rich in iron and is believed to strengthen joints and lymph, and is beneficial to veins and bones.
Lily Buds - helps to repel heat from body and soothes the liver.
Snow Pea - rich in protein and minerals.
Papaya - increase milk supply in nursing mothers.
Others
Old Ginger - this is one ingredient that appears in almost all postnatal dishes. Helps repel wind.
Rice Wine - invigorates energy and major organs in the body and dispels coldness. Wine is supposed to soothe the nerves of a tired mum and helps her to relax.
Sesame Seed / Oil - promotes blood circulation.
Wood Fungus - rich in iron, it helps stop bleeding, removes stale blood and cleanses the arteries.
Eggs - nutritious food, a very good source of protein especially if you don't fancy eating meat.
Red Dates (Stoned) - replenish blood.
Dried Longan Flesh - invigorates the body and is a good tonic for the brain. Good for mothers who feel weak and fatigue.
Black Vinegar - purifies the blood and cleanses the arteries.
Dang Gui (Chinese Angelicae) - this is dubbed the female ginseng highly effective for a whole range of gynaecological complaints. A good tonic to be taken after childbirth. It's also believed to help regulate menses and relieve pain and has a tranquilising effect.
It is rich in vitamins and minerals, helps to replenish and invigorate blood, and can be used for mothers who are anaemic or feel weak after delivery. It is also believed to moisturise the intestines; effective in treating constipation due to dryness of the bowels.
Dan Sen (Codonopsis) - beneficial for mothers suffering from lethargy and related symptoms like fatigue and tired limbs. It acts as a powerful energy booster. In modern lab tests, it has been proven to increase red blood cell count and improve circulation.

Congrats Dili_mummy! Hope you're recovering well and your baby's all great!
I don't pump milk out, too tiring after latching her on. So tired that i usually just want to go back to sleep. It should be fine right?
Vaccinations: Have u girls checked out the 6-in-1 vaccine? What's the price like per jab and how many jabs are there? How's it different from the 5-in-1? I'm so confused about all this.

Venus, my pumping schedule is sort of fixed. Only when boy happens to be hungry when I pump then I latch him on i.e. pump and feed him at the same time. When he cannot wait for us to prepare the milk I will latch him on too.
Nowadays, i pump 5 times per day..

Ladies, during confinement, if u ladies did nt hire any massage lady, u can try asking ur mum or MIL to fry brown rice den use some of the brown rice n put in a cup, pour over it with hot boiling water n add in a slice of ginger, once its warm, u can drink it liao.. its quite effective, dat's wat i've been drinking thru out my confinement, n my tummy slims down really fast.. heh..

Sexxy, yes, use nipple cream. In the meantime, use breast pump. Maybe ur positioning isnt correct. Initially I got sore nipples also. After a while I dont even use nipple cream cuz v troublesome to clean before u can feed.
Threadfin is the wu3 yu2. Nowadays i can pump out on average 120 ml.
venus, it's v good to pump and feed at the same time. cuz sometimes no milk liao then suddenly boy comes along and feed then got letdown again!
